ABSTRACT: Background
Sapanisertib is an oral, highly selective inhibitor of mammalian target of rapamycin complexes 1 and 2.Objective
The aim of this study was to assess the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, preliminary efficacy, and to establish the recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) of sapanisertib.Patients and methods
In this dose-escalation and expansion study, East Asian patients with nonhematologic malignancies received increasing sapanisertib doses once-daily (QD; starting at 2 mg) or once-weekly (QW; starting at 20 mg) in 28-day cycles.Results
Among 28 patients (QD dosing, n = 22; QW dosing, n = 6), three dose-limiting toxicities were reported (stomatitis [n = 2], gastrointestinal inflammation, gingivitis, and acute myocardial infarction [all n = 1]), all in the 4 mg QD cohort. The RP2D of sapanisertib was 3 mg QD. The most common adverse events were stomatitis (64%), nausea (50%), and decreased appetite (50%) in the QD arm, and nausea (100%), blood alkaline phosphatase increased (67%), and hyperglycemia (67%) in the QW arm. The Tmax of sapanisertib was ~ 0.5-2.6 h and the T1/2 was ~ 5.9-7.6 h. Three patients achieved stable disease for ≥ 6 months (1 each in 3 mg QD, 4 mg QD and 20 mg QW cohorts, respectively); the clinical benefit rate was 45% and 67% in the QD and QW arms, respectively.Conclusions
The RP2D of sapanisertib in East Asian patients (3 mg QD) was lower than in Western patients (4 mg QD), but the pharmacokinetics and safety profiles were similar. Sapanisertib was well tolerated and showed moderate anti-tumor effects in heavily pretreated patients with nonhematologic malignancies.Nct number
